Estamos ante un cómic importante para la trama de Superman de Los Nuevos 52, escrito por Scott Lobdell. Entre las cosas a destacar, es interesante ver a Jor-El en acción, y jamás pensé ver a Lara siendo pelirroja.

En los últimos días de Krypton, Jor-El tomó una "cápsula ambiental", un transporte especial de su propia creación, para investigar el núcleo del planeta. Sus investigaciones en el subsuelo confirmaron las sospechas de que su mundo se está muriendo desde dentro. Mientras continúa por el túnel subterráneo, Jor-El encuentra un agujero cubierto por un líquido misterioso. Jor-El se da cuenta de que el líquido es en realidad una forma de vida ácida que intenta atravesar la cápsula ambiental. Sabiendo que su vida corre peligro, Jor-El regresa a la superficie, abandonando su investigación. Al regresar al centro de investigación, Jor-El planea hacer de nuevo el viaje, pero los técnicos le responden que necesitará la autorización del Consejo Científico... y ahí es donde todo se complica.
